Chapter 384: Planning of the villa area

The current Airport Avenue is one-way traffic, and it is very smooth when going there, but not so smooth when coming back, especially after exiting the toll station. It is almost impossible to move. When he arrived at Yanjiang Avenue again, there were quite a few employees from the hotel walking along the bridge, chatting all the way to Yanjiang Avenue. It seemed that the dinner gathering was over.

Those who were already in the provincial capital went back to their dormitories, those from the metal products factory went back to the city, and those from other counties and cities were arranged to stay at Yijia Hotel. It was already the 25th day of the lunar year, and the hotel did not have many guests, which was fortunate.

Seeing Feng Yiping driving, many people greeted him with a hint of alcohol on their breath. Most of them just said hello. Although Feng Yiping was always smiling, very approachable and amiable, no one was friendly enough to come over and chat with him on the shoulder.

Not everyone had left. There were still quite a few people in the auditorium who had volunteered to stay behind and tidy up the mess of broken crockery. Tomorrow, four buses would be sent to take people back to the county seat. They were parked nearby and would be responsible for taking the employees of the metal products factory back later. They were all busy cleaning the tables that had been brought in from the factory, and the thirty or so people from the village were of course among them.

Many people also stayed behind at the convenience store. Acquaintances like Wang Jinju and Hu Junting were there. These girls helped the chefs clear the dinner plates and collect the empty bottles.

The managers were there too, even Lao Cai and Mei Yiliang were over there lifting tables. Feng Yiping didn't want to join the group of men, so he ran over to the girls and collected the bottles with them. Surrounded by the girls, he felt quite good, surrounded by flowers and birdsong.

Still, there is strength in numbers. After more than an hour, the auditorium was cleaned up, even the floor was washed with water, but the smell of the banquet still lingered in the air.

Feng Yiping took off his gloves and shook hands with the girls around him, 'Happy New Year! See you next year,'

Hu Junting asked, 'You will go to the capital after the New Year,'

'Yes, I'm still a poor student, but if you get bored in the province, you can apply to switch to the north. I think there are people there who want to come and see us,'

'Really?'

'As long as you do your job well, it's fine,' Feng Yiping replied with certainty.

'So if a branch opens anywhere, you can apply to transfer there? Then I also want to work in a convenience store, and in the future I want to transfer to Sichuan to work,' Feng Wen, who was standing with Wang Jinju, said.

He has already passed the training and joined the sales company, but Feng Yiping is a little doubtful. Has he really passed? It seems that his emotional intelligence is worrying. Why did he say such a thing in front of Wang Jinzhu?

Sure enough, he didn't have a good ending. His foot was immediately firmly stepped on.

Lao Cai had just moved the table a while ago. At this time, he stood with his arms folded in a circle of middle-aged people. He seemed to particularly like this lively occasion. I don't know if he is unwilling to grow old, or if he wants to seize a little of the tail of youth or middle age.

As he watched Feng Yiping approach, he smiled and said, 'Next year, I want to hold one in Shenzhen too,'

'Sure, everyone has worked hard for a year, and it's only right to reward them at the end of the year,'

Shenzhen Furniture Factory is one of the first companies to close for the holidays, which Feng Yiping personally approved of, as he knows it's not easy to get home from there.

'In terms of furniture, we are also fully confident that we will achieve sales of over 100 million next year. For this year's Spring Fair, all the preparations have been organised.'

Since the Shenzhen furniture factory is based on foreign trade, it is of course impossible to miss a trade fair like the Canton Fair. A few years ago, private enterprises like theirs were not eligible to participate. Of course, it is not easy now. The company has made preparations for both scenarios. It has contacts and public relations with the commerce departments of the two provinces, but neither is ideal. In the end, Feng Yiping had to ask Jinling for help, and through her father, Director Jin, he was able to join the provincial delegation.

'I'm waiting for your good news.'

For the Canton Fair, which they were participating in for the first time, the export team had also started preparations long ago. These key personnel, poached from state-owned and private foreign trade companies, had used their connections to contact many businesses and sent out a lot of information. Lao Cai and the others reported an expected turnover of between 3 million and 5 million US dollars, which was not a small goal for a company exhibiting for the first time.

'You'd better go back early, it's windy here,' said Lao Cai, as he saw his brother-in-law, Zhou Xinyu and Xu Bin, who were also a little excited, accompany Feng Yiping across the lake.

'For this area, I think we should focus on greening first. How about turning it into a park attached to the hotel? However, the greening plan has to be done well. We want to turn this area into a high-end villa project in the future, so we need to plant some suitable trees. When the villa area is completed in the future, the green trees will be ready, and there will be no need to transplant them from elsewhere.'

When Xu Bin asked about the use of this piece of land, Feng Yiping expressed his opinion. It's not good to leave it fallow. 'You could also build a few sports fields. Of course, this is just my personal opinion. You should discuss how to do it.'

'I think real estate is a good idea. Could we consider increasing investment in this area?' Mei Yiliang asked.

'I don't really agree with increasing investment in this area. The real estate market is huge and the returns are high, but there are too many things involved, from land allocation to demolition. However, this area can be discussed with Binjiang District to obtain more land. The plot ratio of this villa area must be low. My idea is that we will do this project, but we must make it a boutique, a model, a project that cannot be bought even if you have money later.' Feng Yiping pointed to the land next to him and said to his brother-in-law.

Of course, he knew that the real estate sector was very hot and would remain so for a long time. However, it also seemed to be a high-risk area. It might be slightly better than those coal barons. There were various reasons for people getting into it, running away, and jumping to their deaths. For him, there were many opportunities to make money now, and he was a bit resistant to getting too involved in this sector.

'There's no problem with these wastelands,' the brother-in-law replied promptly. He now has a good relationship with the leaders of Binjiang District. Otherwise, it would not be easy for a company with such a humble reputation as theirs to open up the Yanjiang Avenue and build a new bridge. Moreover, this is not a hot plot of land in the central area that many real estate companies are eyeing.

'After the hotel is up and running, we need to hire a few authentic British butlers and bring a team out here. In the future, the owners of this villa area will be able to enjoy the meticulous and attentive British butler service provided by this team 24 hours a day.'

This idea had just come to Feng Yiping. This is the advantage of having a hotel. Can other villa areas in the provincial capital enjoy such service? Definitely not! Even if some owners pay a high price to hire a British butler, our team of butlers will definitely do a better job than just one of your butlers.

'I want to book a set here after hearing that,' Zhou Xinyu said with a smile. He had no doubt that Feng Yiping could do it. Since he had said it, he would definitely be able to do it.

'You don't have to focus on this alone. If you buy a few more properties at home, trust me, the returns will definitely be good in the future. Overall, they will definitely be higher than those of the developers.' Feng Yiping brought up this topic again. The managers around him already had to consider financial management.

'So if we buy a commercial property built by a developer now, we will make more money than the developer?' Feng Yiping's brother-in-law seemed to have thought deeply about the issue of real estate and asked.

This is not surprising, as decoration companies are in contact with people who buy houses.

'In the long term, this is definitely the case. The better the location and the better the quality of the house, the higher the return.'

If you really have too much money to spend, let the developers do the hardest work for you, and then take over the entire project and hold it in reserve. The rate of return on this business will not be lower than Warren Buffett's return on stock speculation.

During the years when housing prices skyrocketed, it was not uncommon for the price of a house at the time of delivery alone to increase by several tens of percent compared to the price at the time of the initial launch. Some developers sourly said to the owners that they had made more money than they had.

'After hearing what you said, I'm really tempted. My mother has always envied those who live in small Western-style houses. I'll definitely go and see those villas when I go back this year,' said Zhou Xinyu.

'That's a great idea. If you have a good project in mind, you can invite everyone to go together. Shanghai houses have a lot of room for appreciation, and I'm very interested too,' said Feng Yiping.

'Yes, let's see if we can form a group and buy the project you like as a whole,' said Xu Bin.

Everyone laughed. The group present could now afford to consider any property, as long as it wasn't a particularly high-end villa.
